Mushrooms on Toast

Two blog posts in one week – you lucky things! It’s more beige food but trust me beige can be utterly delicious. And yes, I really am posting a recipe for Mushrooms on Toast.

Halloumi Fries

Fried Cheese. Are there two more beautiful words in the English language?! Everyone today is obsessed with pancakes, but I am still thinking of this gorgeous treat from the weekend. Don’t worry, I will be gorging on pancakes later. For now however, I want to tell you about Halloumi Fries.

Blood Orange and Grapefruit Salad

I just love the abundance of citrus fruits at this time of year. They are like sunshine in the bleak winter months. Blood oranges are one of my favourite fruits and this is the perfect time to get them. I am always looking for new ways to use them and came up with this Blood […]

Roast Aubergine with Tahini

This post for Roast Aubergine with Tahini may sound dull but there is also harissa, red pepper, feta cheese and pomegranate piled on there. It is one that I have had in my drafts folder for quite some time. A discussion with my friend Fionnula recently about vegetarian meals prompted me to make it again […]

Sweet Chilli Bourbon Cocktail Sausages

It’s a very quick and easy recipe today! Food snobs might turn their noses up at a humble cocktail sausage but I have yet to see any leftover at a party I’ve been to. They seem to be the ultimate crowd pleaser.

Brussels Sprouts with Pancetta and Grapes

I was watching Masterchef Australia recently – I’m obsessed! – when the contestants had to make grapes the star ingredient of a dish. It made me realise that I don’t cook enough with grapes. I love them when they are roasted, like in this Roasted Grapes with Feta and Walnuts.

Cauliflower Cheese

Cauliflower Cheese is quite the classic Winter side dish. I have to be honest, I would gladly eat this as a main meal! Baked caulifower covered in a cheesy bechamel sauce and breadcrumbs, baked again until golden brown. Delicious!
